2days on the flats, Exmouth

Some photos from a couple of weeks ago. Had a couple of days spare after a job in exmouth. Lined up a 12foot tinney and hit the flats in search for Bones and permit.

Weather was a blowout so spotting was a nightmare. Plenty of spangos and goldens. Big goldens were busting me up Bad. The 12lb set up copping a beating and long 20min battles with large goldens always ended badly. No luck on the bones. Spotted 3 pemit for 1 strike but no hook up Frown.

damage- 1 Lox rod, loads of leader,

Found a few jacks and spangos in the harbour at night too.

Best fish- 70cm spango on 12lb in less than a meter of water in and out of coral.

anyways.

back in May

yep those spango's sure go hard in the shallows, especially 70cm ones. I ended up fishing a 20lb outfit just to minimize lure losses, which were $20 a pop.
